A thin stream of raindrops crossed the long journey and fell to the earth.
Located on the edge of the city, inside an ancient courtyard regained by the Yashida family.
Countless hurried-looking family servants were wiping away the blood everywhere.
Completely erasing the last traces of Hydra.
Deng Deng Deng——
Accompanied by the sound of rapid footsteps.
Yukio, wearing a white kimono, quickly walked through the wooden corridor.
We entered a temporary ward covered with dust-proof plastic sheets.
It's on the bed in the center of the ward.
Mariko, whose face was still bruised and swollen, had regained consciousness.
She was half lying on the bed.
He kept staring blankly at the slender palm raised in front of his eyes.
"elder sister!"
The expressionless Yukio seemed to be unable to suppress the excitement surging inside him any longer.
She rushed forward, lay on Mariko's lap and cried loudly.
Like a child who has endured countless grievances.
Maybe it's the stimulation of a loved one's cry, or maybe the memory is gradually coming back to life.
Mariko's blank eyes disappeared instantly.
The will belonging to leader Yashida slowly returned to her body.
"Xueo...I have wronged you these days."
Mariko's slender palms gently placed on Yukio's soft short hair, and said comfortingly:
"I have returned safely. The Yashida family will be safe and sound... Yukio, how many people did you lose to rescue me?"
I heard my sister ask.
Yukio, who had released a lot of emotions, raised his snow-white face.
She carefully told Mariko everything that had happened in the past.
And as Yukio spoke.
Waves of unbearable waves suddenly arose deep in Mariko's head.
I saw that Mariko's physical condition was not quite right.
Yukio quickly stood up and called for medical personnel to intervene.
After the doctor finished the examination, he said to Yukio:
"The patient's brain has suffered several severe injuries and requires a long period of recovery... Master Yukio, you'd better not disturb the patient's recovery, right?"
The expressionless Yukio nodded heavily.
She waved all the medical staff away and bowed to apologize to Mariko, who was lying back on the bed.
Afterwards, only Mariko, with her eyes closed, was left in the ward.
The next moment, her eyelids kept beating.
Tiny sounds continued to spread from the depths of her throat.
"For the Imperium of Man...for the Emperor!"
----------------------------------------
Bucky, wrapped in white bandages, slowly stood up from the hospital bed.
He subconsciously waved his mechanical arm.
The internal mechanical structure made a low hum.
Bucky lowered his head and glanced at the white bandages everywhere on his body, shook his head and sighed:
"I have experienced so many bullets and bullets in the past, but I didn't suffer many injuries... Now I have made up for it."
Bucky walked towards the door with bare feet.
Wow——
The wooden door has just opened.
Bucky immediately saw Rorschach sitting across the courtyard, wearing Terminator armor.
At this time, Rorschach, with a happy expression, was holding a glass of wine and admiring the slightest raindrops falling on the courtyard.
Bucky stepped forward.
Wait until he gets near Rorschach.
A bottle of wine he had never seen before had appeared in Rorschach's metal palm.
"An alcoholic drink called Green Taurus...for wounded men like you."
The smiling Luo Xia narrowed his green wolf eyes.
He said without looking back.
Bucky grinned and took the drink.
He skillfully used the thumb of his robotic arm to pry open the bottle cap.
He took a cautious sip.
Bucky, who frowned slightly, sat next to Rorschach with the green golden bull and said softly:
"Tsk...the taste is indescribably weird. It can be considered a special flavor."
"Don't worry, they haven't expired yet...or these products have no concept of expiration at all."
Luo Xia smiled slightly and bared his fangs.
"Captain, when are we leaving? Have all the matters in Japan been settled?"
Bucky smacked his lips and shook his head.
He took another sip of the alcoholic drink, turned to look at Rorschach and asked.
"Why...can't the locals' tenderness cope with this?"
Rorschach narrowed his green wolf eyes and glanced down at Bucky, who looked embarrassed.
"Well, that Yukio always comes to see me intentionally or unintentionally... Captain, what do you look like? Do I look like that kind of person? She is not... not my type! I am very old-fashioned.
Yes! I just like blonde hair and big breasts!”
Bucky, whose face was slightly red, became nervous subconsciously.
He blinked desperately and whispered to Rorschach.
"Did I say something? I didn't say anything?"
Luo Xia slightly opened his green wolf eyes.
He drank up the glass of wine in his huge palm in one breath, stared at Bucky with a smile and said:
"Don't be nervous. My team is very free. As long as we don't follow the necessary red lines... I will never interfere in personal matters."
However, maybe it's the alcohol.
Bucky's numerous emotions were amplified.
He drank the entire bottle of Green Taurus in one go, smiled bitterly at Rorschach and said:
"Captain, I don't dare and I don't want to... An old guy like me with bloody hands has no future... Maybe dying in battle one day is my final destination, so... don't waste it on others.
feelings."
"Your good friend, Steve Rogers, is still alive...did you know?"
At this moment, Rorschach, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly said to Bucky.
"Haha... I know. After I woke up from Hydra's brainwashing, I asked David to help search for my past friends... Two old guys from World War II miraculously survived. I have to say
…A lot of things in this world are so fucked up!”
Bucky grinned with a melancholy expression.
There was a little nostalgia and sarcasm in his eyes.
"In the near future, we may have conflicts or even war with Rogers and the official forces behind him..."
Luo Xia, who narrowed his green wolf eyes, stared at the raindrops passing in front of him and said in a calm tone.
In silence, Bucky lowered his head and thought for a while.
He took a deep breath of cool air and said softly.
"I know... Steve's character can no longer be described as stubborn and stubborn. Unless there are huge changes and unexpected crises in the things he believes in, otherwise... Captain, I want to use my future
Fighting and loyalty, I make a small condition to you."
"explain."
"If one day we really face Steve... I hope you can spare his life and give me a chance to change him... He is also my last friend in my failed life."
"Can."
Hear Bucky's sincere plea.
Rorschach blinked his cyan wolf eyes slightly.
A faint smile appeared from the corner of his mouth.
